AVERMEDIA QUICKPLAY ( PQUICKPLY )

Summary: Wow!!!
Review: After messing around with two video cards from another Mfg (that I could not get to work, my Quick play arrived today and it is a Great little product. It's quality is better than expected and in combination with Avermedia's PCI 350 TV tuner, I have my own PVR at a fraction of PVR/TiVo prices.

One word of caution, make sure your Display settings do not exceed the max. I made this mistake and took me a while to figure out why it was not working-Pilot error.

Summary: Interferencia en el monitor
Review: Este producto provoca una imagen borrosa en el monitor en donde se instala, entonces, uno no puede dejar el QuickPlay permanentemente conectado en la computadora.

Ya lo revise con 2 monitores, uno compaq de 17" 7500 y un ViewSonic de 19" con los mismos resultados. (No lo he revisado con PCs Portatiles)

Es algo incomodo el estar conectando y desconectando los cables de video VGA del monitor, ya que siempre se tiene la preocupación de doblar los alambres del conector.

Definitivamente este detalle deja de hacer practico el producto, por lo demás, creo que se calienta demasiado y el hecho de tener una paleta de colores de 16bits y no de 24bits (Por lo menos) realmente produce imagenes horribles para las plículas DVD que en realidad es el proposito principal de este equipo.

En resumen, creo que es un producto con calidad muy inferior para lo que promete (Ver Películas desde tu PC), Te recomiendo que no pierdas tu dinero y tu tiempo con el y mejor revises otros productos.

Summary: Do not waste your money
Review: I bought this so that I could use my brand new Sony Wega as a large monitor.

Pictures and Video look fine. Text is unbearably hard to decipher.

I went to AverMedia web site and found this FAQ when troubleshooting the image issue. ...

Even they tell you that it is not going to be perfect.

So unless you are going to use your PC as a DVD or Picture player don't waste your time and money.

Summary: Perfect for all needs
Review: This is simply the best priced adapter of it's kind. I purchased the AVerMedia QuickPlay origionally for my notebook computer so I could play movies from my computer onto my television. It's uses are limitless as anything on your computer screen can appear on your television, such as movies, computer games, photos, presentations, and you can even use your TV as an extended monitor to do play these things on while having full use of your regular desktop at the same time!

The adapter comes with component (Pr,Pb,Y) and S-Video hookups for your television (the Y of the component can be used for standard RCA Video-In on composit TV's.) There is a VGA passthrough cable to hook up your computer monitor as well. The whole adapter is powered through a usb cable (used for power only, you do not need to install any software,) which is perfect for mobile computing users. There's 3 levels of anti-flicker protection and three levels of adjustable contrast, as well as a button for shrinking or filling the frame of your TV and ones for positioning it.
